i really couldnt believe my eyes so i had to look at other pictures of it and it actually was what i thought it was...and now im destined to get one! haha, so does anybody know if they make this as a model? or will i have to add this to my kitbashing list?


thanks, Nate Lafond :)
 
you'll have to bash it, it 's a one-of-a-kind. for now. Seems like it would be a simple bash at that.
 
Another view.

The PR43C is a test bed, but I'm confident there will be more since CAT prime movers have a better warranty.
 
I have a question regarding the picture on NSdash9.com's picture. The side shot shows the entire length of the new radiator section. It now has 4 fans instead of 3. Does the cat prime mover operate at higher temps needing the extra cooling?
 
Steve, I think the extra cooling is to keep the primer mover at lower temps. I.E. Proactive protection against the heat; not reactive, reacting to the hotter engine...
